Abstract (en)

[origin: CN111991075A] The invention refers to an electrosurgical instrument with a first branch and a second branch. The two branches are pivotably arranged at each other by means of a hinge. The hinge is formed by a support pin at the second branch and a corresponding support cavity at the first branch. Preferably one single hinge with one single support cavity and one single support pin is provided. At one side adjacent to the hinge location at which the support pin extends into the support cavity, a knife guide cavity is provided in the second branch for a moveable guided support of a knife. Parallel to the pivot axis defined by the hinge, the knife guide cavity is arranged adjacent to an axial end of the support pin. The hinge or the hinge location formed by the hinge at which the support pin is arranged inthe support cavity is only arranged on one side of the knife guide cavity viewed in a direction parallel to the pivot axis. The respective other side is free from hinge components, and does not contain means used for pivotably supporting the two branches at each other along the pivot axis.
